Inconsistencies with the sundering (Spoilers)

[MikkoAkure]

And what happens if they didn't post the short story resolving the two different versions of the sundering? Which version would we accept as canon?

You don’t need the writers to hold your hand to be able to reconcile the fact that Hydaelyn stomped Zodiark and had more than just 1 reason to be summoned, as was stated back in the Shadowbringers patches.

But maybe we do need handholding and we need giant flashing warnings in cutscenes now to tell us whether what we’re seeing is an artistic description of events condensed into one thing or if it’s meant to be taken literally.

Again, I think they should’ve done it literally and showed us the fight we should’ve had.

We already addressed this. You're falling behind.

I was hoping for a better response than the one you gave that cherry picks parts of the cutscene that support your idea that it’s meant to be literal, but the part of it is “obviously metaphorical” doesn’t count so you’re supposed to think it’s literal and then metaphorical.

In the endwalker cutscene, whats the metaphor for hydaelyn's battle with zodiark? You can't answer that, can you.
